La procedura ha richiesto 2 settimane. Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso Barclays (San Francisco, CA) nel mese di giu 2010
Colloquio
Interview consisted of two phone screens by members of the team. One was the project lead and the other was a senior engineer. The project lead threw me soft skill problems and the senior engineer asked me high level technical questions.
Afterwards, I was invited to the corporate headquarters for on site interviews. I performed a technical interview consisting of high level problems and programming with two members of the engineering team. Afterwards i spoke with the project lead once again.
